Together with Chinese Academy of Sciences, Alibaba Cloud has unleashed superconducting quantum computing services on its public cloud, running on a processor with 11 quantum bits of power.
Alibaba Cloud has launched quantum computing services on its public cloud, which it says runs on a processor with 11 quantum bits (qubits) of power.
It worked with Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) to build the quantum computing system, touting it to be the second-most powerful cloud service available to the public--behind IBM and Intel's 20-qubit offering.
Alibaba said customers would be able to access the superconducting quantum computing cloud service to run or trial custom-built quantum algorithms and download the results. This would enable them to assess the performance of quantum processors and identify any potential technological barriers, it said.
Alibaba Cloud's chief quantum technology scientist Shi Yaoyun added that the accessibility to quantum computing power would allow users to experiment with quantum applications "in a real environment" and better understand the property and performance of the hardware. This also would pave the development of quantum software and tools, Shi said.
Alibaba and CAS in July 2015 set up a quantum computing laboratory and developed a cloud-based quantum cryptography method.
IBM in May 2016 also made available its quantum computing processor, free, for experiments via its cloud platform. Called the IBM Quantum Experience, the offer allowed users to run algorithms and experiments on the US vendor's quantum processor and work with individual qubits.
Hello, my name is Mohd Azahar. I'm a self-employed Pivrate from the India.
When I originally commented I clicked the -Notify me when new comments are added- checkbox and now each time a comment is added I get four emails with the same comment. Is there any way you can remove me from that service? Thanks!

The next time I read a blog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this one. I mean, I know it was my choice to read, but I actually thought you have something interesting to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about something that you could fix if you werent too busy looking for attention..
